In subsequent years, Wiley consistently won the best painter award at various regional exhibitions, and her work was exhibited at the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Cincinnati Art Museum, among other places. Following the deaths of her father (in 1919) and Branson (in 1925), Wiley suffered a mental breakdown from which she never recovered, and was institutionalized until her death in 1958.

The squadron won the 2009 Vern Orr Award for most effective use of people and resources in pursuit of the mission. Four members of the squadron here were named the 2009 MacKay Trophy winners. The MacKay Trophy is awarded annually by the National Aeronautic Association for the "most meritorious flight of the year."

The crew was deployed as part of the 129th Expeditionary Rescue Squadron at Kandahar Air Base, Afghanistan.

Soviet statue in Vilnius before its removal, depicting the working class The Soviets assiduously promoted "people's art": every exhibition, book, movie, play, museum, and the education system had to be guided by the ideological context and be in keeping with socialist-oriented art forms. From 1950, singing festivals would be staged on a regular basis, for the first time since the 1930s, featuring Lithuanian folk songs and music that did not oppose Soviet ideology. People's artists had to portray an imaginary perfect life of kolkhoz farmers and workers, their fight against the bourgeoisie for social justice, and their values of industriousness, honour, justice, integrity, and loyalty to the ideals of communism. The most meritorious people's artists would be awarded the title of Emeritus People's Artist.

Thus Rittmeister Wakenitz became commander of the Garde du Corps from 1758-1760\. At the engagement in the Battle of Zorndorf, he was able to turn the Russian flank and was immediately promoted to lieutenant colonel. Among the leaders of the Garde du Corps, he was unquestionably the most meritorious, and according to the judgment of Friedrich Wilhelm von Seydlitz, he was a man worthy to be placed at the head of the Prussian cavalry, but he must have made enemies; he was told that in Zorndorf he had taken a Russian officer, contrary to orders, into his protection, and the Russian had shot a member of the Garde du Corps. On 6 May 1760, he was promoted to Colonel and Commander of the Cuirassier Regiment No.5 (Markgraf Friedrich).

Cash on Demand was selected by the film historians Steve Chibnall and Brian McFarlane as one of the 15 most meritorious British B films made between the Second World War and 1970. They note that it also received enthusiastic reviews at the time of its release from The Monthly Film Bulletin and Kinematograph Weekly. They particularly praise Peter Cushing: "Above all, it is Peter Cushing's performance of the austere man, to whom efficiency matters most (though the film is subtle enough to allow him a certain integrity as well), and who will be frightened into a warmer sense of humanity, that lifts the film well above the perfunctory levels of much 'B' film-making."Steve Chibnall & Brian McFarlane, The British 'B' Film, Palgrave Macmillan, London, 2009, pp. 280–81.

Only in the past 30 years, lucid dreaming has become subject of scientific investigations, and the researchers most meritorious for this achievement are Paul Tholey and Stephen LaBerge, two psychologists who devoted their lives to researching lucid dreams. LaBerge developed a method known as "eye signals during lucid dreaming" which allowed him to physiologically investigate by comparing physiological processes with dream reports more precisely. With this method he would later go on to perform the first of many scientific research studies on lucid dreaming at Stanford University, which allowed for lucid dreaming and dreaming in general, to become an accessible/ acceptable subject for research. Throughout the years, LaBerge’s research would lead to the fabrication of techniques that would serve as a recipe for inducing lucid dreaming. One of which being the ‘mnemonic induction of lucid dreams’ technique.

TV Guide wrote, "The suspense is well built in this finely constructed feature": while Sky Movies called it "An unheralded low-budget thriller which contains twice as much suspense as many more lavish productions. Taut, crisp, with a conspicuous absence of big name stars, it is a prime example of the British B movie at its best. With a bit of Hitchcock here and a touch of Rififi there (a 15-minute sequence is acted in complete silence), the suspense is built up to a climax which leaves one hoping that just this once, crime will be allowed to pay." It was one of 15 films selected by Steve Chibnall and Brian McFarlane in The British 'B' Film, their survey of British B films, as among the most meritorious of the B films made in Britain between World War II and 1970.

The Babies were raced in the early 1920s by a variety of pilots but are best remembered for the flights of G-EACQ in the hands of Bert Hinkler. On 31 May 1920 he made a non-stop flight from Croydon to Turin in 9 hours 30 minutes – a flight of 655 mi (1,050 km) and celebrated at the time as "the most meritorious flight on record". On 24 July, he won second place in the handicap category of the Aerial Derby at Hendon, and on 11 April 1921 set a new distance record in Australia when he flew the Baby non-stop from Sydney to his home town of Bundaberg 800 mi (1,288 km) away, making the flight in 8 hours 40 minutes. Hinkler's Baby is preserved at the Hinkler Hall of Aviation in Bundaberg.

After leaving Liverpool City Council Mulhearn wrote (together with Peter Taaffe) an account of the period when supporters of Militant were leading the council, published as Liverpool: A City that Dared to Fight in 1988.. He worked as a taxi driver from 1991 to 2001, and also studied part-time at Liverpool John Moores University for a combined Social Sciences degree (including history, economics and politics). In 1996 he passed with first class honours for his dissertation (on Leon Trotsky), and was given the prize for "most meritorious mature student". He later worked as an IT support co-ordinator for the Department for Work and Pensions in Warrington, while remaining active in politics as a member of Militant's successor the Socialist Party and a member of the Campaign for a New Workers' Party."BNP bigots retreat under pressure", Campaign for a New Workers' Party, accessed 22 July 2009.

This award is given annually to the most meritorious single article that appeared in the journal in the previous year. Plante and her colleagues Tammy J. Spaulding and Kimberly A. Farinella were honored in 2007 for their article, "Eligibility criteria for language impairment: Is the low end of normal always appropriate?" published in Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools (LSHSS). This paper outlined difficulties associated with the use of low scores on standardized tests as a means of identifying children with language impairments, and emphasized how sensitivity and specificity rates may assist clinicians in making accurate diagnoses. Plante and her coauthors Janne von Koss Torkildsen, Natalie S. Dailey, Jessica M. Aguilar, and Rebecca Gómez received the 2014 Editor's Award for "Exemplar variability facilitates rapid learning of an otherwise unlearnable grammar by individuals with language-based learning disability," published in the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research.

The Radio Times: "this above-average programme filler has a passable plot (involving a little bit of skulduggery in suburban Brighton) that's kept moving swiftly and painlessly by director Jim O'Connolly...Vaughan plays with a dogged determination that is efficient, engaging and quite at odds with the more sinister characterisations he would essay later in his career". BFI Screenonline described the film as "an utterly charming B-film comedy-thriller that emphasises character as much as plot and makes full use of extensive location footage." The film historians Steve Chibnall and Brian McFarlane selected Smokescreen as one of the 15 most meritorious British B films made between World War II and 1970. They describe it as an "uncommonly neat little insurance racket-cum-murder thriller" and praise the way that its comic relief is "built into the fabric of the film's main narrative action".

The "sports rorts" affair, also called the McKenzie Scandal, is a scandal named for the many similarities it has to the sports rorts affair that occurred under the Keating Government in 1993-1994. In January 2020, the Australian National Audit Office published a report into Sport Australia's Community Sport Infrastructure Program titled 'Award of Funding under the Community Sport Infrastructure Program'. The report had two main conclusions: the award of grant funding was not informed by an appropriate assessment process and sound advice and the successful applications were not those that had been assessed as the most meritorious in terms of the published program guidelines. The outcomes of the report resulted in extensive media coverage due to Senator Bridget McKenzie, the then Minister for Sport in the Morrison Government, using her ministerial discretion to favour marginal or targeted electorates in the allocation of grants in the lead up to 2019 Australian federal election.

Since 2005, she has been a director of BSN: Black Solicitors Network. Earlier, before her election in October 2010 as BSN national chair, she led the Midlands chapter; and had responsibility for pastoral care based upon her longstanding experience as family lawyer, ecumenical trustee and empathic mediator. As Black Solicitors Network chair, Nwokolo has been working smart to make sure that the general UK disappointment at the low rate in the number of lawyers of Black and African descent in the legal profession is improved for good in the interest of the country; in terms of better minority inclusion and worthy diversity. Through many initiatives, which includes the Diversity League Table consultation, Nwokolo has led BSN to work consistently in the direction of widening meaningful participation and access to legal services in the United Kingdom. She is noted for progressive vision in the following words: “Working with our partners we’re trying to move things forward in terms of creating a legal workforce drawn from the most meritorious.

Motor Mechanic Barry Pike spotted her and dived into the water while Coxswain Kenneth Gibbs used all his skill to prevent the lifeboat crushing the two people in the water. Pike was washed ashore but returned and eventually brought the woman ashore, although she was found to be dead. He was awarded a silver medal for his courage and determination and also the Ralph Glister Award for the most meritorious service of the year by a member of the crew of an inshore lifeboat. Gibbs received his own bronze medal for his tremendous courage and excellent seamanship during a rescue that he led in the all-weather lifeboat on 16 December that year. On that occasion a sole crewman of the fishing boat Petit Michel was saved out at sea in a Force 9 storm.Morris, Jeff (2001) pp.32–33 1976 was another year of outstanding rescues by the lifeboat crews at Torbay. On 23 August the lifeboat went to rescue 14 people and a dog who had been cast ashore when their speedboat was wrecked south of Dartmouth.

TV Guide gave the film two out of five stars and called it an "Average comedy"; in the Radio Times, David McGillivray also rated the film two out of five stars, calling it "no great shakes as comedy, but interesting as a vehicle built around a much-loved British star at the end of his career" whereas Britmovie noted, "Twenty years after appearing on stage in this lively Rex Frost play, in his penultimate film Gordon Harker reprises the role of a belligerent hotel waiter having to use all his wit and cunning to save his job. This low-budget film features Harker in typically jovial form, dominating comic proceedings with typical polished expertise, and with a less assured cast this thin comedy wouldn’t be worthwhile. There are early roles for Billie Whitelaw and Janet Munro, and the doughty Irene Handl is cast as the hotel’s spirited cook." It was one of 15 films selected by Steve Chibnall and Brian McFarlane in The British 'B' Film, their survey of British B films, as among the most meritorious of the B films made in Britain between World War II and 1970.

Soon after the Football Association gave permission for competitive matches to be played under floodlights, Darlington beat Carlisle United 3–1 in the first floodlit FA Cup match between Football League clubs, a replay held at St James' Park, Newcastle United's ground, in November 1955. The 1957–58 season saw the club equal their previous best FA Cup run, reaching the last 16 by defeating Chelsea, Football League champions only three years earlier, in the Fourth Round. After letting slip a three-goal lead at Stamford Bridge, Darlington won the replay 4–1 after extra time, described as "a most meritorious win, earned by a combination of sound tactics and an enthusiasm that Chelsea never equalled" by The Times' correspondent, who felt it "surprising that extra time was necessary, for Darlington always seemed to have the match well in hand". In the League, Darlington's fourth place in 1948–49 was their only top-half finish in the first twelve seasons after the war, and when the regional sections of the Third Division were merged, they were allocated to the new Fourth Division. The Supporters' Club raised £20,000 to pay for a roof at one end of the Feethams ground and for floodlights, which were first used on 19 September 1960.
